Giada Chicken Marsala Recipe

In this Chicken Marsala recipe from Giada De Laurentiis, you trade butter for olive oil, making it a bit lighter without losing that savory flair.
Start with well-seasoned chicken cutlets, giving them a quick sear on medium-high heat until they’re golden brown.
This is where that mouthwatering crust forms!
One trick is using cremini mushrooms - they add a nutty sweetness that partners so well with the Marsala wine.
